He is pro-civil rights and antiwar, in favor of gun-control legislation and against compulsory prayer in public schools. Gore also voted no on Clement Haynsworth and G. Harrold Carswell...

Issue by issue, Brock attacked systematically: gun control, school busing, the Haynsworth-Carswell votes, school prayer, support of the President on Viet Nam.

Raggio is a strong law-and-order, victory-in-Vietnam man, and his election to the Senate would be a big boost to the Administration. Agnew has made several trips to the state to aid Raggio...
